I had typed up a whole post Monday but man; it was so negative I couldn’t bear it? I think it is also because there were some bright spots in the weekend that I hadn’t even acknowledged, so it felt, though true, disingenuous? So I scrapped it.
Today, well last night, I decided to put myself back on a schedule. Writing stretches, etc. I felt like I have been floundering for quite some time and had lost focus and if I want to submit anything this year, I need my structure back. I transcribed 5 more pieces off from my index cards and a micro-memoir. The index card topics range from a tragic winter accident, to a “Missed connection,” to a modern day Strega. I am excited about how they are turning out.
I have eight places that I am going to work on getting submissions to, if they fit of course, and still work on my project.
I hope the week is treating you all well. Let’s do it again?
